Thanks, I ordered the tank and straps, super easy, got the discount!!! gotta have shiny new straps to go on a shiny new tank, supposed to have it by the 8th, look forward to it, will be in touch if I have any questions with the install. Thanks again

I got the gas fill tube out and noticed it is corroded at the end, I was planning on cleaning it up and reusing it, they cost $90.00, so I would rather not replace it, do you think this is a good idea? Thanks

If you can sand it down and get it smooth then it's fine to reuse. I've replaced a number of tanks and never had the tube bad enough where I had to replace it. There's an O ring that seals the tube to the tank so it doesn't leak. As long as it's smooth where it meets the O ring then it should be fine.

Ok, I put in a brand new gas tank, new fuel filter, took it out for a drive to the gas station, drove fine, got gas, went to start it up and it idled real rough, engine was shaking, let it cool down tried it again, it started and idled fine for about 5 minutes, then the engine started shaking gave it some gas, then it stalled, thought it was the voltage regulator, because the plug was loose, I bent the prongs so the plug would fit tighter. so I had it towed home put the old mechanical voltage regulator and it still does it, wont start and if it does engine shakes give it a little gas then it stalls. Could it be the points, when I bought the car it had a brand new distributor, so I assume the points are new, the car is getting gas, it seems to be something electrical, anybody have any ideas? it was driving fine since I bought it in February, this just started happening a couple weeks ago. Thanks! Is it possible if the car is running very lean it could cause this?
